About your host

My name is Mark Dodge Medlin. I'm a communications pro and former journalist who lives in Pasadena, California, with my wife and our dog, a poodle mix named Tag.

I work in the communications department at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, one of the most respected hospitals in the U.S. In my 30-year journalism career, I did it all — reporting, editing, headline writing, page design, Web work, even some paste-up using hot wax and an X-acto knife.
